Global Markets Advisory Committee

The Global Markets Advisory Committee (GMAC) was created in 1998 to advise the Commission on issues that affect the integrity and competitiveness of U.S. markets and U.S. firms engaged in global business, including the regulatory challenges of a global marketplace that reflects the increasing interconnectedness of markets and the multinational nature of business. The GMAC also makes recommendations regarding international standards for regulating futures, swaps, options, and derivatives markets, as well as intermediaries. Members include financial market infrastructures, market participants, end-users, service providers, and regulators.

Commissioner Caroline D. Pham sponsors the GMAC. Harry Jung serves as the Designated Federal Officer, and Nicholas Elliot serves as the Alternate Designated Federal Officer.
